Yellowstone's Super Volcano Report:
EYE
WITNESS NEWS FROM YELLOWSTONE!
This
Just In 01-25-2007
A
series of earthquakes have just struck Yellowstone National Park, thus
the caldaria (Yellowstone's super volcano) is located where these quakes
originated.
We Will update this breaking news as we learn more.
Note:
Quake are not unusual for Yellowstone, but these apparently were much
larger than normal.
We will have to watch and see
how Old Faithful is acting over the next few days.

YELLOWSTONE
NEWS
FLASH UPDATE
We received a
very interesting/alarming email from one of our viewers in
regards to Yellowstone National Park. At first we were not going
to post the information, but than again, what if some or all of the information
is in fact true? One
viewer sent us a link from CNN.com backing up some of the
report!
We did learn that there is in fact some truth to
part of the report in regards to the elk either dying, paralyzed
or dead in great numbers in and around Yellowstone National Park,
much of which were in Yellowstone county, Wyoming. This (might) be do to gasses that are often released from volcanoes
before they erupt. Since Yellowstone's super volcano is
massive, it (might) account for widespread death of hundreds of elk
in the Yellowstone region.

So, as for the rest of this report, we have no way
of confirming the information.
However, "The Premier Radio Network" (a well known
network found on both AM & FM) reported last night
(03-09-2004) that they understand there is in fact a very
special "rescue/evacuation
drill" to be
held in the Yellowstone area. Several
reports now suggest there may be more to this story than what
the public is being told. So, we present the following
report "as is" and
not necessarily as fact.

Special Update! 12-13-2003
Yellowstone Super Volcano update:
Yellowstone is back in the news again. Yesterday (12-12-2003) in San
Francisco, California at the American Geophysical
Union Meeting devoted the whole day on the state of Yellowstone with
at least two dozen presentations on research
Some scientist are now wondering if an explosion
is long over due. Several different papers at the Geophysical Union
Meeting focused on thermal and land defamations in Yellowstone.
Satellite radar imaging confirms that there
is a large area of uplift, about 30 by 40 collimators
(19 by 25 miles) centered under the north rim of Yellowstone's
caldera. Geologist call that, "The North Uplift Anomaly"
which began rising up in 1997 a few millimeters a year.
Writing about this bulge is THE UNITED STATES
GEOLOGICAL SURVEY SCIENTIST appearing before the AMERICAN
GEOPHYSICAL UNION on 12-12-03, spoke in a paper called, "Stress
Transfer Thermal Unrest And Implications For Seismic Hazards Associated
With The Norris Uplift Anomaly In Yellowstone Nation Park".
Here is an actual excerpt from that report:
"The spring and summer of 2003 has been a
time of vigorous thermal unrest in the Norris Uplift Anomaly... Unrest
began with the eruption of Steamboat Geyser in May 2000, and has
intensified in the 2003 spring and summer with the eruption of Porkchop
Geyser on July 16, which had been dormant since 1989. From April 1
through July 1, 2003, the temperature of waters in Porkshop's vent
increased continuously. There
has also been the formation of a 75 meter line of fumaroles just north
of the Norris Geyser Basin and a general trend of increasing spring and
ground temperatures there. This year, the 'Norris disturbance' began
around July 11, 2003, when pronounced changes were noted, including
thermal pools that were boiled to dryness, creating fumaroles. (As
of December 2003) The National
Park Service had to close some footpaths in the geyser basin Owing do to
near-boiling ground temperatures! The
uplift has also led to an increase in seismic hazard potential in the
area of uplift."
Other USGS research this year was
conducted by geologist Lisa Morgan who took a team underwater at Mary
Bay in Yellowstone Lake. Mary Bay was apparently created 13,000 years
ago when a gigantic steam explosion ejected rocks and gas all around the
area. Nearby at the bottom of the lake itself, there is what park
geologists call a "structural dome" that is 2100 feet across
and 100 feet high. Is the dome an indication of more building pressure
below the lake that could blow like it did 13,000 years ago? Dr. Morgan
thinks the dome is static, but in Mary Bay her diving team reported 250
thermal vents, fissures, geyser basins and 30-foot-high columns of
silica that had been deposited.
So... what is
happening at Yellowstone? Could all the hot temperature changes, new
steam and water eruptions, and large land bulge be related? Are they
precursors to a big steam, or water, or carbon dioxide gas, or lava
eruption that might be coming?
A December 11th. 2003 interview with
Hank Heasler, Ph. D., Supervisory Geologist for Yellowstone National
Park in Yellowstone who lives and works in Yellowstone Park said, "It's
all related because it is caused by the heat from the Yellowstone
volcano as far as this bulge and all the hydrothermal features, all the
hot springs geysers, mud pots and steam vents in Yellowstone, are the
result of the volcanic forces."
But what about that big bulge under
the north side of the Yellowstone caldera that has been rising a few
millimeters each year since 1997?
Professor Bob Smith at the University
of Utah and his students reported at the American
Geophysical Union meeting that they have done seismic tomographic
imaging of the bulge which covers 19 x 25 miles. Their seismic velocity
data suggest there is leakage of gas, maybe carbon dioxide, causing some
of the ground to lift. There is a possibility that there might be some
magma movement, but the seismic tomography shows magma only in small
amounts under the Mallard Lake and Sour Creek resurgent domes in
Yellowstone. The University of Utah data suggests that 90% of the large
bulge is solidified. Another possibility for the slowly rising bulge
could be superheated water moving underground. Bob Smith went on to say
that Yellowstone is a very-very active volcano and that the main
question is; is it something to be feared? "I don't think it's
something to be feared, but it's something we need to be aware of and
keep our finger on the pulse of." said Professor Bob Smith.
The above information is based
on a transcript from The World Premier Radio Network Broadcast of
12-12-2003.
As always, stay tuned here for
breaking news before the news hits the main news channels! Worse
yet, they may not even cover
the story in the news until it's to late for you to prepare to get out
of the area fast, 300 to 400 miles fast that is... away from Yellowstone. (Note)
This may be all the
warning we/you will ever get since we do not know if there will be any
further warnings should Yellowstone's Super Volcano Blow.
